The Chinese word **高峰** (gāofēng) is a compound noun formed through the combination of two meaningful characters: **高** (gāo), meaning "high" or "tall," and **峰** (fēng), meaning "peak" or "summit." Morphologically, it follows a common modifier-head structure in Chinese, where the first character **高** describes the attribute of the second character **峰**, essentially creating the meaning "high peak." This term can be used both literally, to refer to a tall mountain peak, and metaphorically, to describe the pinnacle of an activity or a period of maximum intensity, such as "rush hour" (**交通高峰**) or the "peak of one's career" (**事业高峰**).
